Middle School Learning Programme
We ensure that our learners have a range of opportunities in order for them to develop a range of dispositions and to learn more about the way that they have been designed. Our philosophy is that students in Year 7-9 need a focus on literacy and numeracy skills and that they should be exposed to a wide range of subjects. Links are made between subject areas in an integrated approach. Our students gain a diverse learning experience in their formative years and pathways for later in their education.
We provide Home Learning to reinforce concepts being learnt at school and to support student development of study habits.
- Home Learning is generally given on a Monday and expected to be completed by Friday of the same week
- Students are expected to complete a set amount of Home Learning each week. If your child struggles to complete Home Learning in the allotted time, let the teacher know.
- Specialist subject teachers may also issue Home Learning at times
- Please check that your child completes their Home Learning each week
- Home Learning may also be visible on Google Classroom and year level websites
Year 7 and 8 students have curriculum areas that span the year and other subjects that are on a rotational basis.

Option Subjects (Semester Courses)
Year 9 students choose four option subjects. Each subject area is offered on a semester basis. Students complete two options in semester one and two in semester two. Although every effort will be made to ensure that as many as possible of the students’ preferences are met, due to a restriction on class sizes, students will not necessarily be placed into their top four option preferences.
With the exception of Spanish, not taking an option subject in Year 9 does not exclude your child from taking it in the future.
